Answer 1

In a democracy, political parties participate in elections and get political power.

Explanation:

Political parties organise and contest elections, present candidates, aggregate interests, mobilise voters, and form governments; therefore, they obtain political power directly, unlike courts or social organisations, which do not contest elections in a democracy.
